Thanks :-D

There's not much difference between 27 and 28 so far though ;-)

PS. The cocolino is great, but the mouse is a bit weird - it's absolutely tiny!  Great to use though.

I turned 28 in July, and I actually do feel older.  Very weird feeling it is too.

Happy birthday Vincent!

Well, I've been 28 for more than a day now and I still don't feel any older :-D

Bet it hits me by the end of the week though ;-)

Who, Jefferson MacBetamax? Surely you jest, Vinnie. He has the same birth year as MacDonalds, Betamax recorders and the Jeffersons. I would say he has at LEAST 3 years on you.
But he is not older than me.

Of course not! After all, you were born in the year that Roentgen discovered X-rays...;-);-);-)

But Betamax was 1975... 75 + 3 = 78...  Unless he was born at the start of 75 then it'd be nearer 3...

Ah fudge it, he's older anyways :-D

Ooooh, flatterer :-D

The sad truth is, I was 30 in February.

@ Cyberus

 :lol:

Sometimes I feel that old. Especially when you consider the total turkeys I have to work with. But I only have one or two (or three) years on Karlos

"...I wonder how many members fall into our age group?..."
------------------------------------------------------

Actually that is a great idea for a poll. I would guess the age bands would go like this (in descending order):

20s
30s
teens
40s
50s and up

Post by: Karlos on October 08, 2005, 01:09:54 AM
@X-Ray

I seem to recall there was one at one point, but I was in the twentysomething bracket then :-)

Post by: Vincent on October 08, 2005, 01:39:23 AM
I hate to depress you further Karlos, but I can't even see that poll in the archive :-(

Mind you, they do only go back 2 years.
Title: Re: Happy Birthday Vincent
Post by: Karlos on October 08, 2005, 01:44:09 AM
That's ok mate, I never get depressed at the notion of getting older. It's just life :-)

Of course, my attitude invariably changes as the next birthday rolls into view ;-)

I think that happens to everyone once they've passed the 21 mark :-)

I think the worst one was the big 30. Man not being at his peak anymore and all that. 40 will be a b1tch psychologically but I can't see any problems after that.
Oh well, here's to the thirties  :pint:

Your'e only as old as you feel.

Thanks to this bloody cold that's about 75 atm...

Yes, after 25 it all started going downhill for me, and at 28 i'm now trying to starting getting healthy again (mentally and physically), so that when I do hit the big three-o it hopefully won't be as bad as i'm anticipating.

"...Your'e only as old as you feel..."

or as the woman you feel  :-P

Ja, I realised a few months back that I needed to adjust my habits to my current metabolism and job. So I am attacking the squash court with vigour. This week I played squash every day after work. The preceding Sunday I played three sessions in a row and on Thursday I did a double session. I feel alright. I am getting back my speed, agility and power. I may weigh close to 90kg but I can shift. Just yesterday the dude from histology asked me if I was on something because I pulled off some nifty dashes. Well, I've cut out quite a bit of rubbish from my diet and the exercise definitely helps.
I'll be damned if I give up chocolate though...

Well, I don't eat meat anymore, I meditate (well, when I can be arsed), I don't take drugs anymore, I'm gonna start martial arts training again and i'm giving up smoking again on Tuesday (My official quit date).

I'll be damned if I give up the beer though! :-D
